India captain Rohit Sharma's communication style and forgetfulness has often been a subject of banter between the Indian players and is as famous as his pull shot among the fans. The topic came up in a recent chat between wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant and YouTuber Tamnay Bhatt.
Rohit's words caught on stump microphone have often gone viral on social media, with one of the most famous ones being "agar koi garden mei ghoomta hua nazar aaya toh... (if I find anyone roaming around like in a garden)". Similarly, his forgetfulness has been a source of healthy fun among fans and players.
From passports and iPads to the playing eleven at the toss and missing words while communicating, Rohit's habit of forgetting is no longer a secret.
When Pant was asked on the show if he always understands what Rohit is trying to convey, he jokingly replied: "Bhai depend karta hai. Ground ke context mei toh mai samajh jaata hu, off the field kum aata hai samajh mei (I understand what Rohit says on the ground, but off the field I don't).
Meanwhile, Pant also shared an incident in which he tried to distract Virat Kohli in an IPL match.
He was asked on the chat why he tried to distract Virat Kohli during the IPL match earlier this year between Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
Standing on the stairs of the dressing room right behind the sightscreen, Pant playfully tried to distract Kohli, which slightly annoyed the batting legend.
"It was one of the most important matches of the season for us and we needed to perform well. I couldn't play that match and was thinking what could I do from the outside," he added.
